"Stonebreaker Strike…"
With a mere thought, he activated the new skill he'd acquired, channeling his origin energy. Instantly, his arm from fist to elbow transformed, taking on a stonelike surface.

Name: Stone Crusher
Quality: Uncommon
Effect: Delivers a focused strike that deals an additional 100% of the user's base physical damage. Upon impact, it weakens the target's defenses, reducing physical defense by 6% for 5 seconds. When activated, the user's arm becomes encased in a stonelike surface, increasing physical defense by 10%. This form can be maintained for an extended period but continuously consumes Origin Energy.
